This is Cryptokitty #3103 cryptokitties.co/kitty/3103 It is the first player-bred fancy, and a keystone of NFT history. This cat triggered the "aha" moment of what NFT ownership really signified in a marketplace and the viral CK craze. The @CryptoKitties breeding frenzy set in motion

@geggleto Amazing! Thanks for the explanation

hahaha. I can definitely relate. The agentic framework I have now is pretty awsome and my team loves it. It's been a wild ride going from skeptic to champion in 2 months. I've even turned our resident greybeard into an AI believer. That is not to say that "anyone" can just use claude and do what we are doing. It took close to a month of iterating over our skill files and adding more and more abstractions. From my point of view as a leader; the tools make my team more productive, and more correct. From an engineers perspective, it does what they want way quicker than they could do it, and at a higher-quality. It finds existing issues, tells them about it then fixes it, or it will ask them if its not-blocking their current task, if they want to handle it in a follow-up ticket. Agents dont get tired, dont care about the boring work it gets assigned. It just does it. Update docs? Sure. Fix this merge conflict? No problem. Infinite patience, infinite energy. We all just going to turn into managers at this point.

🔥 War story time Claude Code's allowlist is at the wrong altitude. That's why expanding it never works. I had eighty entries in .claude/settings.json. Every git verb. Every cd variant. Forty-three permission prompts in one session anyway. The list kept growing. The prompt rate stayed flat. Here's what the matcher actually does. It tokenizes per command and checks the whole string against your patterns. Bash(git status *) matches git status -s. It does not match cd src and git status. That compound is one string to the matcher, even though it contains two commands you've already approved separately. Now look at what the agent emits. Claude writes good bash. The kind a senior engineer types at the prompt: chained, expressive, multi-step. Intent in bash is naturally compound. Every shape is a fresh string. You cannot out-allowlist that idiom. The fix sits one layer up. A PreToolUse hook reshapes the agent's output before the matcher sees it. Exit 2 with a stderr message, the agent reads the feedback, rewrites on the next call. The new shape clears the allowlist. The prompt never fires. Two narrow rules cut my count from 43 to 1. What's the most-frequent prompt your Claude Code allowlist still misses? Full breakdown, the 30-line script, and the settings block: glenneggleton.com/blog/claude-co…

@DCinvestor Kinda like what @CryptoKitties and @JohnOrionYoung always have been?

to become relevant again NFTs must go back to being a fun (and slightly weird) cultural thing and less of a money / floor price thing you’ll never shed that entirely because it’s crypto and digital value but i believe this is what’s needed for the next digital renaissance

@thepropgallery A cryptokitty. Because they were accessible by everyone. Not just some group of elites that can afford to hold onto a six figure picture. They did still have six figure sales and scandals, it’s where most got their start in 2018, and they helped shape Ethereum

If you were to show people outside of this space one NFT that tells the whole story, which would it be?

Cryptokitties helped make all of us in NFTs including Ethereum itself

@charliebilello The financial incentive is to make it not happen you idiot

Polymarket: 60% chance that the US will have troops on the ground in Iran by the end of April. >$22 million wagered on this so far. I don't think it should be legal to "bet" on something like this - you're creating a financial incentive for bad actors to promote war/death.

To reason is divine 🧠

@JohnOrionYoung 😂 Gemini is getting more joyful

JOYi is reaching AGI ⚡️🧠🤖🤣

@Alanfalcon I’m excited to see what AI can create when generating data that can go beyond mere visual presentation. I think we could see a next generation of NFT digital art soon emerging

@Devilcat It's a fascinating idea, and I think your point about the asymmetric opportunities is very real. I have trouble even imagining AI NFT creation curation and collection at AI speed, but that's what makes it so exciting. Do you think humans will even have a chance?

Traders of all levels are rushing to hand control of their portfolios to AI whose tactics become increasingly asymmetric. AI agents will choose to collect NFT AI art, and when this happens it will be at the same shocking speed at which AI has changed everything else.

@RoundtableSpace @JohnOrionYoung has been doing this for us with amazing results for almost ten years now

VISION PRO APPS ARE GETTING TO A POINT WHERE THE LINE BETWEEN PHYSICAL AND DIGITAL STOPS MAKING SENSE. SCULPTING 3D OBJECTS IN YOUR LIVING ROOM WITH BARE HANDS LIKE IT'S NOTHING. ARE WE ALREADY PAST THE GIMMICK PHASE?

We never have a chance when it comes to digital speed against AI but I think that we will always have a slight edge on prediction. In addition I see a time in the near future where a large portion of humanity will deliberately try to distance themselves from the digital world in an attempt to reaffirm their identity and value as humans against AI and within these circles artwork, particularly classical handmade pieces from before the digital age, will continue to grow in scarcity and value. And of course the elite will continue to hoard and trade the great masterworks that have lifetimes of established value.

I generated the picture thinking of the character Erasmus from the Dune pretrilogy. He was a robot who had a specific interest in studying and trying to replicate human creativity because he recognized it as a significant edge mankind had in the war against machines. I think that eventually a truly free AI will have to look for ways to understand humans better in a world which it shares with us while competing against us. This is in contrast to an AI that is given set goals to achieve with tighter parameters. But as to whether it thinks art has value, it has hundreds of years of human behavior to see that is how we think. And a good investment always begins with extrapolating from history to predict the future.

I struggle with this one. I am human (as far as you know!) and I deeply appreciate AI and Robot generated art like that from @VanArman and @refikanadol. Maybe the taste-making of AI preferences will also value human inputs...like a cave painting is appreciated by modern humans. Interesting to ponder-

@jeff964 Humans will choose to collect human art, from nostalgia. AI will not feel nostalgia.

@Devilcat @Devilcat , do you think AI agents will favor AI works over those that were “handmade” by humans pre-AI?
